President Mohamed Ould Cheikh El Ghazouani said Mauritania adopted its third nationally determined contribution, with a 2035 horizon, in November 2025, adding that work is under way on the related investment plan, while the national plan for adaptation to climate change is nearly complete.
Speaking on the sidelines of the climate summit in Turkey, Ghazouani said the two frameworks will help improve the planning of national interventions, the monitoring of progress and the mobilisation of financial resources through more transparent mechanisms.
He added that the government is working to extend social protection to the most vulnerable groups by setting up a social safety net to help affected families cope with climate shocks and strengthen their resilience to crises.
